Abstract: La réponse cellulaire à l'exposition à un rayonnement ultraviolet a été caractérisée au niveau moléculaire au moyen d'une technologie de réseaux de gènes haute densité. Des molécules d'acide nucléique et des molécules protéiniques dont l'expression est réprimée ou induite en réponse à l'exposition à un rayonnement ultraviolet sont identifiées en fonction d'un motif temporel d'expression modifiée après exposition à un rayonnement ultraviolet. Des procédés décrits utilisent ces molécules régulées par le rayonnement ultraviolet comme marqueurs d'exposition à un rayonnement ultraviolet. L'invention concerne aussi d'autres procédés de criblage permettant d'identifier des composés qui modulent la réponse d'une cellule à l'exposition à un rayonnement ultraviolet ; et des compositions utiles dans le criblage de médicaments ou à des fins pharmaceutiques.

Title: Self-tuning statistical resource allocation for multipoint network events
Inventor: HARBERT DOUGLAS EARL
IPC: H04M3/36
Filed: 2002-03-18
Abstract: A method for dynamically allocating MCU resources (900) during a multipoint network event such as a conference call. The method determines the number of MCU resources (900) to allocate for the start (910) of the multipoint network event and then at each of a plurality of modeling intervals during the multipoint event adjusts (930) the number of allocated MCU resources based upon actual inbound users (940). Self-tuning (100) of the allocation of MCU  resources for multipoint events occurs in advance of use by providing a look ahead allocation of resources based on what is likely to be needed in the future for a conferencing event. The number of multipoint events (1020) occurring within a tuning interval are are counted (1010). The number of MCU  resources actually utilized during each multipoint event are accumulated (1040) and then a probability value is determined (1080) for future use of MCU  resources for an upcoming multipoint event.
